The belt on my Bosch WTMC3321US/05 (Nexxt 500 Series) dryer was fraying, so I just replaced it. That seemed to go well, but now the dryer will not start. The lights do light up on the console. When trying to start it in air fluff mode, with no heat, I hear one click and then nothing happens. When trying to start it in a heated mode, I hear the same click and then a louder click, and then nothing happens. I'm guessing that the first click is for the door latch, and the second click is for the heat, so both of those seem to be working. But the motor does not start. I checked the high heat thermostat switch and it is fine (there is continuity). Is there a motor reset button that may need to be pressed? I removed the drum so I could see everything and didn't see anything wrong with the motor - the shaft turns freely. I honestly didn't touch anything more than I had to in order to change the belt. Any ideas appreciated.

Great news - I just found this video which describes the exact problem my dryer has and shows how to reset the motor. Now my dryer works fine. Hope this experience helps someone in the future.
